Olive trees are grown on five continents. Fertilization of fields, pest control management, olive leaves, pomaces, and mill wastewaters have a substantial environmental impact. It is possible to reduce this problem by using organic products cultivate decrease oil processing waste recovering the bioactive molecules. In work, effects biostimulation, with beneficial microbes belonging Trichoderma genera, secondary metabolites (6PP HA) were evaluated phenolic profile antioxidant potential...

The contamination of agricultural products with mycotoxins causes risks to animal and human health severe economic losses. Mycotoxicoses can be reduced by preventing fungal infection using chemical biological approaches. strategies release toxic molecules; therefore, for control are being evaluated, such as nontoxic fungi their metabolites. This work evaluated the effect exoenzymes produced beneficial fungus Trichoderma afroharzianum strain T22 in degrading Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) Ochratoxin A...

Six triterpenoid saponins were isolated from the edible grain quinoa, which is seeds of Chenopodium quinoa (Chenopodiaceae). Following are their structures: phytolaccagenic acid 3-O-[α-l-arabinopyranosyl-(1' '→3')-β-d-glucuronopyranosyl]-28-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (1); 3-O-[β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1' '→3')-α-l-arabinopyranosyl]-28-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (2); ''→3' ')-β-d-xylopyranosyl-(1' '→2')-β-d-glucopyranosyl]-28-O-β-d-glucopyranoside (3); ''→2' ')-β-d-glucopyranosyl-(1' (4); oleanolic (5); and...

Plants emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that induce metabolomic, transcriptomic, and behavioral reactions in receiver organisms, including insect pollinators herbivores. VOCs’ composition concentration may influence plant-insect or plant-plant interactions affect soil microbes interfere communication. Many Trichoderma fungi act as biocontrol agents of phytopathogens plant growth promoters. Moreover, they can stimulate defense mechanisms against pests. This study evaluated emission by...

Human cancer remains a leading cause of global mortality. Traditional treatment methods, while effective, are often associated with substantial side effects, high technical requirements, and considerable expenses. Recently, anti-cancer peptides, such as dolastatin-type peptides naturally found in marine mollusc Dolabella auricularia, have gained attention due to their enhanced characteristics specific targeting cells minimal toxicity normal cells. This review aims provide comprehensive...

While providing considerable societal and economic benefits, plastic packaging leads to global pollution poses health risks. Plastic additives like alkylphenols (APs) can interfere with endocrine functions even at low concentrations. Therefore, developing validating analytical methods for their routine dosage in foods is paramount. The present work validated a chromatographic method quantify (4-tert-octylphenol, 4-n-octylphenol mono-ethoxylate, 4-n-octylphenol, 4-n-nonylphenol) milk. uses...

Green coffee is essential in many tropical economies. Its cultivation often necessitates using pesticides that can leave behind residues harmful to human health. To ensure consumer safety, the European Community has set strict maximum residue limits (ranging from 0.01 1.0 mg/kg) for green sold within Europe. However, lack of official testing methods neonicotinoids (NEOs) a problem, as laboratories must spend resources and time developing validating suitable analytical methods. This study...
